Batting Stance Guy on Justin Upton

Word in the MLB Fan Cave from our Left-Coasters is that all cool trends start in California, but our old friend Batting Stance Guy begs to differ.

Forget about Manny Ramirez's 30-second stroll around the bases, feast your eyes on the "J-Up Robot Dismount Strut." It's taking Major League Baseball by storm.

You can take a peek at all 11 of Justin's Major League-leading home runs here, and while BSG might have embellished a little, you definitely see a little Robot Dismount Strut on his dismount after cracking some of those no-doubters. Story checks out.

With All-Star Game voting officially underway, I've got no doubt that the younger Upton will be roaming the left field at Citi Field on July 16.

Who will be joining him? Vote here until July 4. You can vote up to 25 times per day!
